But trust me on the sunscreen.

On occasion of me stepping uncertainly into the wild terrains of adult existence, I thought I'd ask the advice of those who've been there before me and learned its systems of cartography. That is, the internets!

So, please share a few of the tips you've figured out along the way that have made your life just that little bit easier!

They can be simple and well known - maybe it really *is* easier if you install the toilet paper with the leading edge facing out! - or extremely, oddly specific - what *is* the best compass direction to face when writing love letters in a second story hotel room?

Who knows. Maybe they will make someone else's life just that little bit easier as well!

Never turn down an offer of free food. Your stomach (and your wallet) will thank you for it.

Hee! So, you are of the opinion that there *is* such a thing as a free lunch? ;) Well, you and Alan Moore (http://72.14.205.104/search?q=cache:YsilufZ7SoEJ:br.geocities.com/galeria_sombria/lyrics9.html+alan-moore+thing-as-a-free-lunch&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=ca), not such bad company.
